Why would they be blocked off?
Is this bad?
Can it do damage?
I don't know why they are capped off but it is done at the factory on some models.


The RA cases I got off Stace to do my build had the centre breather capped.

I have utilized it on my motor now though and I'm running a catch can because I run high-ish boost (1.6 bar).
